How does it all work now? In the highly unlikely event that England don’t top the group am I right in thinking still make the playoffs by virtue of this nations league stuff. Must admit lost track on how it all works. Also seem to recall they’ve increased the number of teams qualifying so pretty much every man and his dog qualifies now anyway.  

Yep

Just play less internationals full stop, then you don’t have to make up a convoluted competition to replace friendlies. All you need is Qualifiers, a few warm up games before a tournament and the tour

Originally had four right backs in the squad, so the final game before the tournament... GS plays a centre half there. 😐 He been meeting up with TM for tactical masterclasses or what?

Elgar's Land of Hope and Glory is far superior to the dirgy GSTQ, more upbeat and a better celebration of "Englishness".  Elgar was a football fan too - a Wolves supporter - which makes it perfec

Even allowing for that I always think England get pretty straight forward groups in qualifying. 

Stop whinging you’ve had English players in your national sides for years!

Your reappointment of the Englishman, McCarthy, as manager will use his EFL player knowledge when checking ancient history of players for any vague Irish connection.

A mate said a liking for Guinness is enough to get a game these days.

You take that back, there is no one as Irish as Mick McCarthy! 

It's funny, my Man united mates say the same about McCarthy. Completely due to them resenting him due to what happened between himslef and their God in Saipan

Do you listen to Top Flight Time Machine pod?

Just finished their take of Roy's second book. Hilarious

I actually hope Mick improves RoI, always had a liking for them since Brady.

No , I don't actually, but I googled it there and it sounds interesting. I will check it out. I listen to a lot of podcasts as I walk 45 minutes to work. 

Ah, he will definitely improve us from where we were. We should be competitive enough in qualifying. We didn't get the worst group. Definitely not a golden generation though. I would not fancy playing England at the moment!

Henry Winter turning into a 2019 snowflake.

 

Nothing as simple as being the opposition’s best player, of course. It’s all about hating Saint Virgil. :rolleyes:

I actually though Winter has more about him than such crass barrel scraping.

I quite like Henry Winter (well I think he criticised kean) but has he been sniffing paint. Perhaps fans are booing the oppositions key player to try and put him off his game rather than weighing up charitable contributions. You’d think this was his first football game ever. Where does he think he is the all England lawn tennis and croquet club.

This is a semi-final, with a serious crowd, in a serious football loving country in summer.

England have done a Rovers. 

Sitting back, allowing pressure, then bang, equaliser.

It felt EXACTLY like that. With Kane playing the Brereton role.

Not been the best this half, but great finish from Lingard. 

Hopefully we won’t get Var’d....

Did they show the replays on Sky? I'm watching on ESPN. It feels like being in the actual crowd (i.e. - not having a clue what's going on).

No, nothing related to VAR decision making process
